My doctor says that my insurance won't cover having 2 blood tests for hormons in one month. I can only get it checked once a month. I explained to the doctor that an
hCG stim tests requires me to have lab work done, then the
hCG and 3 days later to get the lab work done again. We argued for a while. He said that my last labs (1 month ago) would have to do as a baseline. Those labs were taken after being off the
testosterone for almost a month. It was my lowest
test results to date. 1.34ng (Reference range of 2.1 - 7.5)
Using those as a baseline I got a 5000iu injection of
hCG (And I feel much better). In 3 days I will get another set of labs done. Will this work? Using 1 month old labs as a baseline? I'm trying to figure out if I am primary or secondary. My sperm count is also improving now that I'm off the
test.
